These do look pretty damn good. I may get the Luffy to pose with the POP Katakuri. They are all due out in December! Prize figures, so Manda, etc. will be your best options.

4th WCF display box came down today! Gonna do a video tomorrow:
I like how you started to collect pre-timeskip WCFs too. Lol! I told ya it's a slippery slope.

Haha! You did warn me!
The Whitebeard MEGA was always a temptation to me, especially along with that Luffy from Marineford set 1.
Once I did my research I realised that I could dedicate an entire case to Marineford as there are that many figures for it!!
I still have a handful left to add, remaining vol.4 Shichibukai + the 6 piece WCF Party set with the conference table, Navy sets, Blackbeard and Red Hair pirates.
I'm still avoiding everything from pre Summit War….............for now!! My wife will go crazy if I get any more boxes!!
Hello guys, apart from Mandarake or Jungle, Amazon or Ebay, are u guys using any other website that sells the WCF collection to europe??
Thanks :)

Hello fellow collector!
I have found those 4 to be your best bet from experience over the past year. If you really hunt on google you might find the odd random store online that has 1 or 2 in stock, but you'd need to know what you are looking for.
The other option is amiami pre-owned. They only ship new figures to America, but they ship pre-owned worldwide: https://www.amiami.com/eng/search/list/?s_sortkey=regtimed&s_keywords=world%20collectable&pagemax=40
Plamoya are an option, but quite pricey. https://plamoya.com/
Finally, if you're willing to use proxy services, you can try Rakuten Japan: https://global.rakuten.com/en/search/?k=%E3%83%AF%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%83%89%E3%82%B3%E3%83%AC%E3%82%AF%E3%82%BF%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB%E3%83%95%E3%82%A3%E3%82%AE%E3%83%A5%E3%82%A2&sm=3&l-id=search_regular
And if you still can find what you're after, there is always Yahoo Actions Japan or recently I found Suruga-Ya https://www.suruga-ya.jp/search?category=5&search_word=%E3%83%AF%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%83%89%E3%82%B3%E3%83%AC%E3%82%AF%E3%82%BF%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB%E3%83%95%E3%82%A3%E3%82%AE%E3%83%A5%E3%82%A2&searchbox=1
Good Luck!
New WCF set announced for January!
One Piece World Collectible Figure - Zodiac - Vol.1 http://www.shonenjump.com/j/jumpcalendar/sakuhin/onepiece/
So my guess is it will be the first part of a 12pc from this colour spread!! Pretty Awesome if you ask me!!
I wonder if that's it for Whole Cake Islands now??
So did anyone preorder that glorious Katakuri Maximum POP yet? Can't find any good sites and I really can't tell how limited/rare he is going to be.
Thanks upfront for any heads up infos guys and girls :)

I'm torn right now. I will be getting it 100%, but need to make a decision on either:
a) Pay now from BIJ, cheaper shipping, but I've had a bad experience of them holding my money to ransom and requesting more for shipping when it turns out bigger/heavier than the estimate.
b) Pay later with Nippon Yasan. The shipping is higher, but probably more accurate and I don't need to pay a dime until December:
I can pretty much guarantee that everyone whose ordered from BIJ will be asked for more money to ship!
As far as how LIMITED it will be, these are the best prices you will find it for. Just look at G4 Luffy or Jinbe after release, they are around 30,000 yen now.
Who know if it will see a re-release, but typically, any re-release is priced similarly to the aftermarket price at the time, so it will inevitably be more expensive.
It is a lot of money though, which is why I'm gonna have to skip Shirohige and likely Hancock too as a result!
SAILING AGAIN FOR THE NEW WORLD
I had that same exact issue with BIJ. I bought the POP G4 Luffy and they asked for more money. Katakuri POP will be probably the same size, so expect BIJ to pull the same thing. I would go with Nippon if I were you.

_You know, I am surprised that no one posted ANYTHING on the One Piece shoes that are being sold by Skechers (Even here in America). I saw these at the mall the other day and my wife HAD to get the Luffy ones. A lot are sold out already LOL. Apparently there are going to be others in Fall, and I was told that once these are gone, its not coming back…

I occasionally see news of fashion items like watches, t-shirts, shoes, etc. but to be honest I'm not really into clothing. My wardrobe pretty much consist of the sames things I've had for 10-20 years :) I only buy new shoes when the old pair fall apart, lol.
I'm sure for a lot of people who collect skechers though they'll grab the entire set!

Thank you very much for your quick and informative reply!
I will look through things, Yorokonde.de has him now listed too, and since I live in Germany this might be the fastest and or cheapest for me (no customs, cheap delivery cost)

I live in Germany as well and it is my experience that you will be cheaper with Nippon Yasan. I ordered Katakuri there and chose Trans-Logistic Standard. As the Yen stands now, I pay 210 Euro (taxes included), although I chose later payment. I always had good experiences with Nippon-Yasan and their trans-logistic service. You´ll normally receive your figure within less than 20 days after release.

Really?? Thanks for the advice :)
but do they not charge customs fee for like 30-40 Euro?
Edit: Ok I checked the site, don't have that much experience up until now but it says something like duty free, transi-logistics and corporation with France + fast delivery.. guess I will try that out and see how it goes :D

From memory, I believe it calculates the tax at checkout, as I recall the total doesn't exactly total the cost of the product + translogic shipment quote. What % of what value they take is unknown, but Nippon Yasan are known to undervalue, so suffice to say, you will be paying less on duty, and as far as customs are concerned, the duty is paid already. You shouldn't get stung again on receipt.
Glad we could help! Good luck!

Saw some pics of next months WCF set surface :) They all look pretty nice! Especially the Luffy with Bege and CC.
It looks like Big Mom has no bones in her arms.

Lol, yeah, I guess they kinda tried to model it on this, but in 3D it made em look kinda bendy, lol
Any wagers on how much this fig will go for on the after market? Pedro still going for about $40, so guessing big will be $50+
Had my phone in portrait and called Crocodile "Smoker"! Enjoy!

I absolutely cannot stand pop vinyls. But the new Nico Robin one looks absolutely adorable.
I cannot hold out. SHE MUST BE BOUGHT!

Nice their making more of the crew and all. Three sets and we still won't have all the Strawhats though, still missing Brook.

brook could be with laboon but I'm definitely getting sanji out of the set
I'm hoping for a series 4 since they can do some enemies or a giant 6 or 10 inch sunny
The start of a collection
Glitter & Glamours Charlotte Pudding:
Glitter & Brave: Sanji
That new Diamond Flag Robin looks like she's had a bad trouser day. Which is bad. But on the other hand she looks like she's a Girls und Panzer reject. Which is….kinda good!
New Kuji's painted:
I wonder what the scale of Luffy to Katakuri is, at least Luffy is looking up at him.
Ace's sculpt seems terrible, yet Whitebeard's sculpt is godly. Definitely want Whitebeard.

Line-up for January's WCF Zodiac Vol.1 has been announced.
Princess Mansherry - (Rat)
Boa Hancock - (Snake)
Carrot - (Rabbit)
Minotaur - (Ox)
Fujitora - (Tiger)
Momonosuke - (Dragon)
This confirms that Vol.2 in February will be:
Luffy - (Monkey)
Farul - (Horse)
Big Mom - (Pig)
Marco - (Rooster)
Inuarashi - (Dog)
Califa - (Sheep)
Can't wait for the pictures!!
MUGIWARA56 Vol.2 now out!!
My Vol.1 and MEGA Sunny from amiami have just arrived in Portland! I'll wait for vol.2 to ship, and then get them all forwarded to UK together! ^^
It really doesn't appear that amiami is offering Banpresto figs anymore. Glad I ordered my WCI Vol.2 from elsewhere!
Nope. Amiami looks like they're done carrying new WCFs. I had a good run. Saved a lot of money. I just moved over to a site called Otakumode and pre-ordered the rest of the WCFs that are being released this year. It broke out to about $76 each with shipping. I've never done business there before, so here's hoping it works out.

Nice, yeah, I came across that website. They actually use GeoBlock like Funimation & Crunchyroll to stop people outside of US from seeing some of their items.
I could use Windscribe to access the items and order to USGoBuy to forward them, but at those prices i'm better off just using Rakuten.
Already have WCI 2 & 3 pre-ordered, along with the Ichiban Kuji Zoro Vs Sanji & Luffy Vs Katakuri. Glad I did as lots have sold out now. Seems the WJ34 coupon entry deadline is tomorrow!!

I can't wait to get mine. Need to figure out where it will go and who will be aboard!! ^^
Perhaps Sulong Carrot!!??
I got my Thousand Sunny yesterday. There's no telling when I'll open it, but I'll try to squeeze Jinbe and Carrot on there with Luffy.
So EbGames here in Canada is getting the WCF Mugiwara 56 vol.2, they seem to be expanding into Banpresto crap. Their priced at $16 cad each though, think I'll see if I can pre-order Nami-swan.
New WCF
Well, Nightmare Luffy and Ace aren't exactly "new" but Pandaman is so hilarious that I'll probably get it.
New WCF
Oh Wow! Now I get it! So Treasure Rally was actually all about re-releasing "hard to find" WCF figures along with some exclusives. Hence the last 2 being STRONG WORLD.
This is only 1 of the 4 sets coming in December: We're also getting a Klabautermann, Zunisha & Roger set!
If the Hancock and Luffy remain the 2 standards, and the titled one the alternate, the other 2 are perhaps up for grabs in the other 3 sets!
That begs the question, which 6 WCF figures would you desperately like to see re-released??!!
MY LIST:
1. Vol.1 - Dragon
2. Vol.2 - Horo's
3. Vol.3 - Perona
4. Vol.3 - Kumasi
5. Vol.3 - Oars
6. Zoo Vol.4 - Bepo

I also just got my hand on the WCF Party Shichibukai Conference Table Set!! Freaking awesome!!
I don't really like WCFs, I wouldn't pay more than 2€ each, but I'm curious to see a photo of all of them together. How many do exist? 1000+?

Over 770. There are a bunch of colored alts, re-releases, and non-figure figures (i.e. the Mugiwara 56 sign). I own all but four of them (the recently released DFs from the treasure rally) but they're all in their original boxes and not displayed. Maybe some day.

This guys owns all of them and has them display around his entire room. Hard to get a full idea without seeing all the photo's. It's pretty impressive.

That's really impressive, but my OCD would never allow me to have other random figures and stuff cluttering up my display. Here's an EXTREMELY old pic that I took of mine (circa 2012). I haven't actually opened any since this pic. I'd try to keep them organized like this where possible (give or take better lighting and maybe different risers), but your setup is pretty darn good as well.

Nice dude! I like how you've arranged them by story arc! It will be great to see you be able to display them all some time in the future!
On a side note, we kinda already knew, but characters for Zodiac Vol.1 confirmed.
Am I seeing wrong or there are NO WCF of the Blackbeard Pirates? (with obvious exception of blackbeard)
I know they´re the final villains so they WILL get a huge spotlight eventually, but still… They´ve been around since Jaya

I'd kill for those little display boxes for single WCF. Anyone know what they are?
WCF look amazing but I used to think they were too big for me and not enough secondary characters. Guess I'm changing my mind recently.
I have all the Anichara Heroes collections (I think I already post photos of them) I like them because they are small (few cm) SD at the scale 1:1 and you have a lot of secondary characters.
I'm SO pissed off that Plex is not making them anymore x_x I was really hyped for getting secondary characters from AllCake like Perorin, the guy with the genius inside, etc.
I'm pretty sure that Plex has stopped making them, the website is down ( http://charaheroes.jp/ )and the last set was Dressrosa Volume 3. I could not find any information on new sets from internet, amiami or yahoo auctions. Anybody living in Japan or recently been in Japan have seen new ones ?
It's also appears that the Figure Collection line-up has also been canceled. Looks like people do not want to have mini figs anymore :(

Yeah, it's bonkers. Maggie and Al!na complained about this years ago, since we all expected to see them after Marineford, but nope. Here we are almost 10 years later, and still not so much as a Shiliew or Burgess. In their defence, Oda has shared very little detail on the crew. We know their appearance, but there has been next to no exposition on their characters. Perhaps we'll be in for a BB pirates vol.1 + 2 set when they finally make their comeback!

I can't be certain, as it may be a custom job (there are a lot of acrylic companies that take commissions), but they look remarkably like Baseball display cases:

Yeah, I always liked the look of Anichara Heroes and Figure Collection, but they were never that accessible to me. Similar to Stylings (another series that appears to have died), they came is these cases, so it was hard to just find the 1-2 you wanted.
WCF seems to be going from strength to strength though. These took a bit of a break and have come back with a new pacing schedule where they do a few color spreads a year between the arc sets. It's actually a really great idea, and the reduction of size from 8 pcs to 6 pcs also seems to help with keeping a steady flow of interesting characters.

If he is using those, then that would definitely add up. Looking at US sites, those run anywhere from $2-5 each depending on the quality you want. Assuming he got them for around $2 each, he spent close to $600 US on those. If he spent $4 each, that's close to $1,200. None of that is including tax or shipping. Yikes.

Yep, and that's without the wall mount display cases!!
That one goes for $79.99 - http://www.nikcosports.com/30-baseball-display-case-wall-mountable-front-loading.aspx
So yeah, you'd have to add another 80 bucks for every 30 cubes you buy!!
And there I was thinking my big $75 cases were expensive! At least I have room for 50 figures in each of those.
Dude is hardcore!
